Palm Pre Plus - best way to open the battery door

I know this is not rocket science but I love my gadgets and treat them like babies. So there is always a best way of handling them.

Palm Pre plus's battery door is slightly flimsy and opening it is kinda tricky. The following three steps however make it very simple.

1. push bottom button/release to open up the battery door slightly
2. slide a fingernail (or card) up one side (longer side) of the phone under the door opening; at about halfway you'll hear a "click" of the latch releasing.
3. do the same on the other side.

I wish I am able to start using my Palm Pre Plus soon....

I picked up the above from...

My Blackbeauty is getting NATTYer and giving me a hard time

As soon as I heard that Natty Narwhal, Ubuntu's latest distro was to be launched on April 28th, 2011, I was keenly waiting for the same. I jokingly asked an expert (@shekharg) if he could guess why I was waiting for April 28th. I thought it would be a piece of cake for him but he could not guess it. I was not sad but happier because he also added that he likes to work with OSs/ tools/ gadgets that have bugs. He is not interested in Linux anymore because everything works. I wonder what OS is he working with these days ;)

But my journey from 10.10 to 11.04 was not as smooth as I had expected (or experienced with past upgrades).

1. I first tried upgrading via the 'update manager'. It took over 3 hours but failed with some error message.
2. Then I started searching for an 'alternate CD image'. In past, alternate CD is what I used for upgrading via CD media. Surprisingly I could not find the latest release (I am sure it must be there somewhere.... but the point is that I could  not find it)
3. With no other option I used the standard desktop CD image (for 64 bit machines) for installation.
4. Thanks to past expert advice from (@kbhargava) I have always kept the /home directory on a separate partition. So, it was easy for me to do a fresh install without losing my data (or even fear of loosing my data)
5. Unity desktop environment is a big difference in 11.04. As a result, my old user profile was not working smoothly enough. In past, every upgrade was so smooth that I was back to a fully functional machine with all settings/ preferences preserved within 2 hours.
6. I finally had to create a new user profile and shift the data manually. This meant that I would not be able to preserve settings/ preferences/ passwords etc.

Overall, the upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04 (for me) has not been as smooth as past upgrades. I am also not sure if unity desktop environment is far better but it is certainly fresh. I did notice one mac-like feature (Menu for every app window is on the top bar as on macs). But I am happy using this latest version of Ubuntu :))
